Kim Kardashian Reveals the First Time She "Really Connected" with Kanye West

Because not even Kim Kardashian is immune to the hype of Star Wars, the reality star paid tribute to the franchise's latest film with a special post on her personal website—which doubled as a surprising anecdote about the beginning of her relationship with husband Kanye West.

"In honor of Star Wars: The Force Awakens being released today, I wanted to share these old pics of Kanye and me from years ago!" Kardashian wrote. "We worked together on a pilot for a show called Alligator Boots back in 2008 and I played Princess Leia."

"I would say this is when we first really connected," she added. "These pics are SO funny!"

Although the raunchy comedy (where Kardashian's character cringingly told West about her plan to hook up with a puppet) never made it to air, the failed TV show is indeed the catalyst for the love story that currently dominates pop culture and, admittedly, sometimes even our brunch conversations.
